I prepare this satisfying salad Saturday evening and serve it to my husband and sons on Sunday after a round of gold. It's a winner on warm days - with a unique mix of vegetables like bean sprouts, green onions, water chestnuts and pea pods. And it's lovely in a glass bowl. -Joanne Trentadue, Racine, Wisconsin Ingredients:
4 to 5 cups shredded iceberg lettuce |
1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced |
1 cup canned bean sprouts |
1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained |

4 cups cubed cooked chicken |
2 cups mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 teaspoons curry powder |
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger |
